The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) recently hosted a five-day training course on how to combat digital asset crime for the law enforcement authorities in Uzbekistan, according to CoinGeek.

The OSCE’s Transnational Threats Department conducted the training session in Tashkent, the country’s capital, in coordination with the regional office there. The State Security Service of Uzbekistan, enforcement officers from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs also attended the meetings.

The course outline covered fundamentals of anonymity and obfuscation strategies, blockchain analysis, and the most recent methods for stealing digital assets from criminals. The European Cybercrime Training and Education Group donated the training materials, according to the statement (ECTEG), CoinGeek reported.

To supplement the General Prosecutor’s Academy’s instruction, the OSCE established a computer training facility. The General Prosecutor’s Academy’s Head of ICT, Gayrat Musaev, stated that the OSCE’s donation of gear and software provides an excellent structural framework for future learning.

The national government has a mistrust about digital assets and has expelled the three companies Binance, FTX, and Huobi for operating illegally. While Azerbaijan, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Mongolia, and Uzbekistan all participated in the drill back in 2020, the OSCE has been conducting training for Central Asian nations.
